With Ole Miss set to kick off spring practice in a couple of weeks, the Rebels will apparently be without — for good — a player who may have been able to make an impact on the defensive side of the ball.

In a tweet posted to his Twitter account, linebacker Ralph Williams said that he will not be returning to the Rebels football program in 2013. No reason was given for what is apparently a decision to transfer out.

“I will like to thank Coach (Hugh) Freeze and Rebel Nation for all they have done. It’s hard to say but I will not be playing for Ole Miss Next year,” Williams’ tweet read.
